I saw them open for Cold Cave here in Minneapolis and was intrigued enough to buy the record, and it took several listens to digest this. It's an interesting contemporary-retro LP: Industrial pop, a kind of death-rock Depeche Mode, clean synths, a splash of 90's dance music. 'Game' is really where all the elements merge perfectly highlighting the band's strengths.
Favorite track: Game.

Turn myself inside out
leave the world with no sound
let the sun do its work
leave behind what I found
Help me forget I found who I am
wait around in the palm of your hand

Help me forget I found who I am
wait around in the palm of your hand

Track Name: Forget Your Finery

There's no better hiding place than in your arms
to put me together again
running aground, I found out who you are
it started with what you said

Exit your castle enter your new homeland
we found a place where nothing ever happens
you'll see the future only when you're better
you'll know a silence moving through the ages

Forget your finery

I stumbled into your fire
to get a look at what's on the other side
keep counting the hours
I'll close my eyes till you tell me it's over

Work with your hands and we'll find what came for
there's no vision where nothing ever changes
you'll see the features underneath the blindfold
you'll be the wanderer that stalks the ages

Forget your finery

Track Name: Charm and Demand

Are you inside, turning me over, making me blind?
The sun drifts away
another day older, floating in time

I walk in shadows of everything we ever had
two songs, written by the same hand
long form, winding and vague
you gave me something that will never go away
you gave me something that will never go away

Charm and demand
taking me over, making me high
and you're still inside
the song never ended, words never die

I tried to say the only thing that you can hear
to make you happen, to see if you would reappear
I wait for the end of the day
you gave me something that will never go away
you gave me something that will never go away

Track Name: Game

It was a game, you moved right through me
you were the same, you never knew me
but I was changed

This album is ... SplendiD ! Great post-P Dark WaVe that does not fade to grey. A black very coolish atmosphere. All songs just pure beauties....hard to tell a best one. Listen Hit to the head, Bury Me, Face meets glass, Let it grow, Crystal and of course the genius of Slave. Thanks Sarah for the discovery ;-) Jack music Life
